Ozarks entrepreneurship: Smokerbuilder.com and The Mid-Mo Smoke Show

This morning I am listening to the Mid-Mo Smoke Show on the local ESPN radio station, and they are talking about what to do with Thanksgiving leftovers.
Right now, they are talking about making gumbo. That is not quite an Ozarkian dish, nor is it made with smoke, but it is the weekend after Thanksgiving, so I an understand why they have set aside the usual agenda of smoking meat.
The description of the dishes they have talked about so far this morning have sounded delicious and the hosts, Frank, Pig Daddy and The Czar, have indicated they will post recipes on their show site later this week.
You can, of course, access that site from anywhere with your computer device, and you can listen to the show live, or on its archives, from anywhere.
The Mid-Mo Smoke Show is the radio voice of Smokerbuilder.com, an Ozarks company based right here in Phelps County.

There was an interesting story about the Smokerbuilder.com Fall Gathering at the Phelps County Focus newspaper website, and it includes quite a bit of history about the company that started when Frank Cox merely wanted to find a good smoker to cook meat for gatherings of family and friends and his home.
He couldn't find one to his liking, so he built one, and now he helps others build their own or modify their current smokers. It's a matter of finding a need, figuring out how to fill it and then provide quality products and service.
That's Ozarks entrepreneurship.
